Estrogen Receptor (SP1) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody, Epredia™

Descripción

Recognizes a protein of 67 kDa, which is identified as estrogen receptor (ER) alpha. The ER gene consists of more than 140kb of genomic DNA divided into 8 exons, and is translated into a protein with six functionally discrete domains, labeled A through F. This antibody strongly stains the nucleus of epithelial cells in breast carcinomas. The ER is an important regulator of growth and differentiation in the mammary gland. Presence of ER in breast tumors indicates an increased likelihood of response to anti-estrogen (e.g. tamoxifen) therapy.
